Shooting Guards - 1997 Usenet Draft All Stats Provided by JazzyJ http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/1997_draft/scout/sg.html Name: Tracey McGrady College: Mt. Zion (NC) Class: High School Height: 6-8 Weight: 200 Born: May 24th, 1979 Position: Shooting Guard Other Positions: Small Forward Stats No Stats Poop (Scout: Curtis Hill) listed at 6'8", 200 closer to 6'7", 180 Another high school player with tremendous physical ability but not much of a clue about how to really play the game of basketball. McGrady likes to compare himself to Penny Hardaway. I can see that a little bit, but Penny played PG as he grew up -- it's not clear that McGrady played organized basketball. McGrady is an amazingly gifted athlete. He moves gracefully, has very good quickness, and jumps very well. He has a smooth shot that appears fundamentally sound. He is athletic around the hoop, able to contort his body to get looks at the basket in heavy traffic. Offensively, he has great potential with his shooting. He could be a tremendous offensive rebounder. However, he doesn't move without the ball. Period. Perhaps that's a fault of his high school coaching. It's a big weakness in his game. Defensively, he again has great potential. He does a decent job on defense when he tries, but nothing exceptional, except shot blocking. McGrady has a lot of work to do on the defensive end of the court. He doesn't box out very much, either. Ballhandling is above averae for a high school senior his size. Nothing remarkable, though. McGrady is certainly an intriguing player for a NBA team to draft. He has great potential, but has really only had one year of great play in high school to base a decision on. He could become a great 2 or 3 in the league. Most any team would have to wait a minimum of a year, perhaps two, before getting any feedback. In comparing him to the other recent high school seniors who've made the NBA, McGrady compares most closely to Jermaine O'Neal. Physically, he probably approaches Garnett, but he doesn't have Garnett's size or feel for the game. More Poop (Scout:[email protected]) This kid has great potiential in playing the 2-3 postions his play at the magic's all-stars was borderline. His stats of his junior year in a weak divioson of flordia basketball were he played were 22.3 PPG, 15.0 RPG, and 9.0 BPG indicates pretty strong game . But like I said he played in a weak comference. During the summer he went to various h.s. camps at the addias basketball camp he was a virtual unknown. His national rank was #175 and moving up he tore up the league out playing some of the best at his postion like lamar odom. He earned MVP at the camp he then transfered to a private school MOUNT ZION CHRISTIAN and dominated the higher level of competion by averaging 22.3 PPG, 7.3 RPG, 4.5 APG, 2.7 SPG, 2.1 BPG while leading his team to a 26-2 record. MCGRADY WANTS TO EXCEED More Poop (Scout: Shivaram Shanmugam) Tracy is an unbeliavable athlete. I saw him in a tournament back in Florida and he was truly impressive. He threw down the most amazing dunks in real game situations, not to mention his performance in the dunk contest. Was more impressive athletiacally than former Floridians Vince Carter and Eddie Jones. Has excellent ocurt presence and uncanny ball-handling ability for a man of his size, not to mention nice touch on his jumper, but where he excels is in the transition game where he runs like a gazelle and finshes spectacularly with authority in traffic. But, for all his potential, he sill needs to under stand the finer points of the game... fundamental man-to-man defense (in high school he would just block everybody's shot with athletic ability but that will not be the case in the NBA), offensive movement (without the ball he is a stationary player and will need to move around if he wants to be a successfull wing player in the NBA). But ovreall, if given time to mature, and if he is allowed to play up-and-down open court basketball, Tracy McGrady can be a star!!! 剩下的…就不理了！XD --
